Questions from thefridayfive...

1. So, how are you really feeling today? Good. Got a fair bit done this week, have made plans for more, have had good family news. And actually finishing some writing always helps. But the weather (it feels like summer already) doesn't help with the getting stuff done, so I indulged my lazy streak as well.

2. Is there something you should have done yesterday, but totally blew off? Gardening, I promised myself I'd get out there and hack at the overgrown ivy and banksia rose. But the heat turned me right off.

3. Is there something you need to do today that will likely meet the same fate? Pretty much anything that involves going outside... it's a tad cooler today but still got to 30deg C.

4. What could make this the best weekend ever? Well, winning Lotto the week before would be a pretty good start... yes, sounds shallow I know, but lots of money would make many of the other bestest things easier to manage. So I guess I have to stick with good.

Anyway, I'm not sure I want the best weekend ever, that would mean all the rest from then on would fall down in comparison...

5. If you are in the US, did you take advantage of any Black Friday sales? If not, do you take advantage of sales or just buy things as you need them? Not in the US, and what I hear about those sales scares me. We sometimes buy on sale (especially the after Christmas one, I have enough cards and wrapping paper to last till the year 2525, I sometimes think) but as for big things, noooo.... we keep chugging along till they stop chugging, then have to run out and buy what ever we can get. Hey, it's worked for years now...

Hell, whose life would improve with an infusion of money? I could do with a bit of that myself.

I forget that you are just heating up as we are cooling down. Hopefully your summer won't be too brutal and you will have a break soon.

Rock on about finishing your story - that is good news!

It's supposed to cool down a bit at the end of this week, which is good as I have a week off :)

[spikesgirl58]

I hope that it will cool off a bit. We are finally getting a little rain here. *yay*
